swaret or slapt-get

[carlosponti]

which is better for keeping my system updated and looking for new packages?

[oz]

They are pretty much alike, really. I'd suggest trying both and deciding which one feels right for you. I've used both and either one works well.

[carlosponti]

any frontends for use with KDE on either of them?

[LinuxBox420]

I don't believe so. There's also slackpkg. I've used all three and found that one to be the best one. Patrick even put it in one of the extra CDs. It's easy to use.

There is a KDE Front end to slapt-get. It comes preinstalled on my Vector Linux.. but you can get it from their repos... it's called Gslapt

[carlosponti]

i started using slapt-get. i think i will try the gslapt i think it was on the slapt-get maintainers site.
